Iranian American Community of Oklahoma
About Iranian American Community of Oklahoma
Iranian American Community of Oklahoma represents a dedicated community of Iranian-Americans working together to build bridges between their heritage and their home in Oklahoma. As an all-volunteer, non-partisan organization, IAC-OK is rooted in the belief that active civic participation strengthens both the Iranian-American community and Oklahoma society as a whole. The organization's members are committed to fostering understanding, promoting dialogue, and ensuring that the Iranian-American perspective is part of Oklahoma's broader community conversation.
At its core, IAC-OK stands for values that transcend borders: human rights, dignity, equality, and peace. The organization advocates for a global community that is more humane, cooperative, compassionate, and secure. In Oklahoma, IAC-OK works to educate neighbors, elected officials, and media partners about the priorities and concerns of Iranian-Americans while promoting tolerance, respect for diverse backgrounds, and the freedoms that make democratic societies thrive. By bringing together community members who share these values, IAC-OK demonstrates that being Iranian-American means being invested in both cultural heritage and the future of the communities where they live and work.
